Eventcube doesn’t currently support a “pay-what-you-want” model, which is common for non-profit event like fundraisers and auctions.
Organisers can only create free tickets or fixed-price tickets.
If you’re hosting a free event but still want to give attendees the option to donate, the best workaround is to create upsell tickets.
Upsell tickets appear to customers at the final step of checkout—just before they complete their order. While often used to increase average order value, they work perfectly for collecting optional donations.
How to set it up:
1. Create your free entry ticket.
This is the main ticket that attendees will “buy” at no cost.
2. Create donation tickets.
For example:
“Donate $10”
“Donate $20”
“Donate $50”
You can add as many different donation amounts as you’d like.
3. Enable upsell settings.
Go to Discounts & Promotions in your ticket settings.
Select Enable Upsell Ticket.
4. Customise the upsell display.
Add an image (optional).
Adjust how you want the donation option to appear at checkout.
5. Hide donation tickets from the main event page (optional).
If you want them to show only as upsell options (and not alongside the regular tickets), enable “Hide this ticket on the event page.”
6. Save your changes.
The attendee experience:
Guests secure their free entry ticket.
At checkout, they’ll see your donation ticket(s) as an optional add-on.
They can add a donation before completing their order.
This way, you keep your event free to attend, while still giving supporters a simple, frictionless way to contribute.
